Second Storm In Two Days Brings Life To A Crawl

Welcome to another (un)healthy dose of winter, three days before the season is official! You can expect perhaps as much as 20 centimeters of snow in some parts of the South Shore this morning and into the early afternoon before it tapers off to flurries. Along the coast, such as in parts of Queens and Shelburne Counties, lesser amounts are likely. To say the least driving is a challenge this morning and dangerous too. The strong northeast wind is creating white out conditions by times and its a good idea to slow down if you have to drive this morning.

Here are the school closures.....
All schools in Lunenburg and Queens counties are closed for the day including the French school in Cookville. So are schools in the Tri-County area, Shelburne, Yarmouth and Digby Counties. Schools in the Annapolis Valley and in HRM are also shutdown for the day. In fact, all schools in Mainland Nova Scotia are closed for the day. Many regional government offices are closed as well.
